"I didn't think of it as lying"

Summary Trapped in Pandora's box, Peter Pan is released by none other than Wendy. When he asks about Felix, she retells her conversation with the curly-haired Lost Boy back in Neverland... Wide brown eyes darted all around; lips thrusted heavy, panting breaths out into the breeze. Green Pine trees danced and waved in the wind’s breath. It was a typical, fairly temperate Spring day; the air was neither cold nor hot, the sun neither too bright nor too dim. It wasn’t cold enough to wear a woollen peacoat, but it wasn’t warm enough to don a flimsy cardigan and t-shirt either. Finally, pounding feet ceased in the middle, directly opposite a fairly steep bank. Once the pupils had observed the woods were completely and utterly empty of human life (except for herself, of course), the honey-brown haired girl with untameable locks attempted to calm her breathing as she lowered her hand holding the small wooden box to the ground. The box stable on the woodland floor, the girl lifted ...

A Universe Too Beautiful (for Him)

Quote: "Sometimes the universe is much too beautiful for my own good. Sometimes; you are my universe"   ~ Christopher Poindexter   Summary: A short drabble set when Wendy first arrived in Neverland.

His Universe

Quote: "Sometimes the universe is much too beautiful for my own good. Sometimes; you are my universe"   ~ Christopher Poindexter   Summary: A short drabble describing Peter's thoughts before the Truest Believer arrives. Before he turns cold towards Wendy.  They sat together, legs sprawled out on the bed. Wendy sat between his legs and Peter had his arms wrapped around her waist, breathing in the scent of her hair. Oh, how he wished he could stay like this, stay with this beautiful creature in his arms forever. But, alas, it wouldn’t last, he knew. The Truest Believer would soon arrive; the boy who had the heart Peter Pan needed to save his realm and himself. Wendy Darling was too good for him. Too pure, too beautiful inside and out. Her beauty had the power to bring him to his knees. Yet, she was his entire universe.  But, he would have to push her away soon. For she, his universe, was too beautiful for him. And he couldn’t afford distractions, no ma...
